Local branches

CIPD Branches are local networks run by volunteers that provide our members with networking and learning opportunities.

There are various ways to join your local branch as volunteer – attend your local branch to find out more or get in touch with your local branch to explore what volunteering opportunities are available. Our branches are always looking for willing volunteers who want to become an ambassador for CIPD and the profession and to offer helping hand in shaping the branches' offer for fellow CIPD Members.

Council is made up of the CIPD Board and a representative from each of our local branches. We hold formal and informal meetings to engage Council fully with our strategic priorities, so they can better help us to build momentum and impact. We're proud of the constructive and honest dialogue and engagement we have with this important and committed group of key stakeholders.
